linuxsampler

Version: 0.3.cvs20050604-1
Description: realtime audio sampler 

 LinuxSampler is a work in progress. It's goal is to produce a free
 software audio sampler with professional grade features.
 .
 It offers disk streaming capability and supports the Gigasampler format
 which is currently considered to be the best sampler format in regards of
 possibilities and sound quality.
 .
 This package provides the backend of LinuxSampler, that is the sampler
 engine together with audio and MIDI drivers. LinuxSampler can be
 controlled via network interface which uses an ASCII based protocol called
 LSCP. You might consider to install a GUI frontend for LinuxSampler as
 well.
 .

nyquist

Version: 2.29-5
Description: a language for music composition and sound synthesis 

 Unlike score languages that tend to deal only with events, or signal
 processing languages that tend to deal only with signals and synthesis,
 Nyquist handles both in a single integrated system. Nyquist is also flexible
 and easy to use because it is based on an interactive Lisp interpreter
 (XLISP).
 .
 With Nyquist, you can design instruments by combining functions (much as you
 would using the orchestra languages of Music V, cmusic, or Csound). You can
 call upon these instruments and generate a sound just by typing a simple
 expression. You can combine simple expressions into complex ones to create a
 whole composition.

rtcmix

Version: 3.4-0test1
Description: sound-processing, synthesizing, modification and mixing tools 

 RTcmix is a package of sound-processing, synthesizing, modification and
 mixing programs that  you can use  to do virtually anything  with any
 pre-recorded  sound, or with  which you can  synthesize any sound you
 can imagine.  Its workings are  very flexible  and relatively simple,
 and, in the right combinations, any musical project can be realized.
 .
 RTcmix is a  superset of CMIX, an old  and venerable sound  synthesis
 and  signal-processing language written by Paul   Lansky in the early
 1980's. The "RT"  part means it is "real-time",  with the ability  to
 process and create sound 'on-the-fly'.  All of the original CMIX code
 exists  unchanged  in   this version,    so that  older   scores  and
 instruments  should run    (and     also be   re-compiled)   with  no
 difficulties.  For more information about CMIX or RTcmix, see the web
 sites at  Columbia (http://www.music.columbia.edu/cmix), or Princeton
 http://www.music.princeton.edu/winham/cmix.html

 efficient performance interface that enables performer(s) to interact
 with both  the computer   and  each other    in the  least  obtrusive
 fashion.  What this  means is  that RTMix offers  an  array of visual
 stimuli that can be utilized on-stage in  order to coordinate various
 performing forces utilizing diverse media.

 This package includes the sfront application, the sfront manual and
 "The MPEG-4 Structured Audio Book", a book on sound modeling and
 sequencing using MP4-SA.
